Legal Services: Data Protection

Business-critical support on data protection

We advise on the full spectrum of data protection matters. We work with our clients to fully embed data protection and accountability into their organisational culture and practices in order to support business strategy. This includes:

Build fairness, trust and transparency

Build fairness, trust and transparency in how customers’ personal data is used and ensure they can exercise their rights easily across your supply chains in order to develop positive customer relationships

Focus on customer data

Organisations are far more likely to undertake data processing that benefits the user rather than themselves if they focus on customer data, which also builds trust, brand loyalty and increased revenue

Increased role of technology

Clients can create an environment of trust within the actual data and technology layers by building and ‘coding-in’ data protection outcomes into the data itself

Move beyond ‘compliance checklist’

Move beyond the ‘compliance checklist’ and build data protection into the heart of your organisation’s purpose and practice – this is not just a one-off change programme or a series of business activities designed to avoid a fine, it is the reality of today’s modern, customer-centric business

Board level ownership of data protection

The Data Protection Officer or the legal department is typically cited as the de-facto accountable owner of GDPR programmes and the day-to-day data protection practice, but the board needs to take on proactive ownership roles
